Create an original, fun puzzle or game in a single HTML file using only HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The core challenge is twofold: keep the code as short as possible while still making the game genuinely fun and playable. Requirements: - Everything (HTML, CSS, JS) must be in a single file - No external dependencies or libraries - Immediately playable with no setup - Include brief instructions so a new player knows what to do - Must feel satisfying to interact with Aim for under 100 lines of code total — the shorter the better, as long as the game remains enjoyable. AI models will be judged on: 1. **Creativity** of the game idea 2. **How fun** it actually is to play 3. **How minimal** the code is Think of it as a code golf meets game jam challenge.
